Announcing: Solid Sound 2011 Lineup

HT faves Wilco have announced the initial lineup for its second annual Solid Sound Festival, which is set to take place at MASS MoCa in North Adams, MA on June 24 – 26. Joining Tweedy and the boys will be the Levon Helm Band, Thurston Moore, Syl Johnson & the Sweet Divines, Here We Go Magic, Dave Douglas & Brass Ecstasy, Pillow Wand (Nels Cline/Thurston Moore duo), Handsome Family, Liam Finn, Sic Alps, JC Brooks & the Uptown Sound, Sarah Lee Guthrie & Johnny Irion, Glenn Kotche, Pronto, the Autumn Defense, Comedy Cabaret curated by John Hodgman featuring Wyatt Cenac, Eugene Mirman & Morgan Murphy, plus the return of the Story Pirates. Wilco will perform on both Friday and Saturday night.

Of particular interest is the inclusion of legendary Band drummer Levon Helm and his group. We’d kill to see Helm sit in with Wilco and vice versa. While early-bird tickets are long gone, $124.50 “regular” tickets are still available. Today’s announcement mentions “thus far,” so expect more artists to be added to the bill soon. Let’s hope Tweedy treats attendees to a solo set.
